During the months of January and February, 2009, Galeria Corona will be presenting some of the best painters and sculptors of Mexico.

Beginning with Gabriel Aceves on Wednesday, Jan 21, and followed by the sculpture of the Nauhtl culture by Architect Arturo Macias. In February, Bella Rish will return with her newest paintings of flowers, and then followed at the end of the month by Alfonso Sosa.

Gabriel Aceves was born in 1956 in Guadaljara, Jalisco. From 10 years of age, he started painting under the Maestro Miguel Angel Lopéz Medina and had his first exhibition in Los Angeles when he was 12.

His activity in the cultural community has enriched his artistic abilities. His picturesque work has been on exhibition in L.A., San Francisco and Miami.

His painting, impregnated by subtle and suggestive eroticism, encompasses human passions like love, hope and humility… and at times in frescos and vivid enchanting colors.

According to Aceves his objective is to consolidate a figurative surrealistic style, and to achieve a perfection he dedicates large amounts of time to studying and analyzing the works of other painters who he admires.

At this time his work is an investigative process and experimentation of natural materials.

And he has developed his own techniques utilizing arcilla, clay, amate fiber, and beeswax. These materials are pigmented using an artisan process pigmented using a process that bakes them in a vacuum at more than 200 C in order to achieve consistency and longevity.

Gabriel Aceves is a full time painter who is constantly creating, and is currently preparing works for an exhibition in Monterrey and other galleries in Spain, France, and Germany.

According to some art critics, the intrinsic worth of his works has immediate growth potential in the art world.

Gabriel Aceves has prepared an unedited series of works for this exhibition at Galeria Corona, Corona 164, Puerto Vallarta.
